I have a pink bar goby in QT now. I plan TTM at minimum, but what other treatments should I use for goby? Thanks

I'd recommend prazipro. I suggest using it on the 2nd and 4th transfers.

i know this isn't what you're supposed to do but my pink bar and shrimp were the first for a small tank so they went straight into DT without treatment. they are doing great. they have taken over 3/4 of the bottom of a 20 g long tank with their burrows. eats LRS reef frenzy nano with gusto.

Similar question, but what do you do to QT a shrimp/Goby pair? If I put shrimp in display and qt Goby will they pair back up after those weeks apart?

can you put the shrimp in the qt with your goby? they will probably find each other but the shrimp really feels better with the goby around.

Ideally, the shrimp would go into a fishless frag tank until after you see the first molt. Just in case any tomonts had encysted to it's exoskeleton.

The goby goes into a fish QT. If it was meant to be, they'll pair back up in the DT someday. ;)
